Jurgen Klopp, Liverpool manager, already has an idea of the identity of the player he will bet on to replace Mohamed Salah.
On the Anfield side, we are already starting to prepare for post-Salah. The Egyptian still belongs to the club, but we have no illusions and we anticipate the fact that he will soon head to other lands.
A €90M recruit for Liverpool
Reds coach Jurgen Klopp is reportedly willing to bet on Bayer Leverkusen star Florian Wirtz. The Daily Star Sunday claims that the German technician perceives his compatriot as the perfect successor to the Pharaoh.
Bayer is resigned to losing Wirtz in 2024, because the biggest European clubs are already starting to surround him. However, the German team plans to receive as much money as possible from its sale. The transfer fee was set at 90 million euros.
Klopp’s reputation in Germany and his numerous contacts make Liverpool a real suitor for the young German prospect and who is currently enjoying a meteoric rise.
This season, Wirtz has scored five times in all competitions, including a “pastoresque” achievement a week ago in the championship. He also has 12 caps with Germany.
